RE: so my boss insists on using oracle on NT sp6

Joe,

I think it has to do with his tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files... I think changing my files to the following fixed my problem (I'm connected to the nework right now, so I can't check :) I think adding the IPC lines was what solved the problem

Hope this helps.
Kevin

listener.ora
LISTENER =
  (ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = PLAY))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = ktoepke-tp)(Port = 1521)
     )
  )

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = PLAY)
(ORACLE_HOME = D:\Oracle\Ora81)
(SID_NAME = PLAY)

    )
  )

tnsnames.ora
PLAY.world =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = PLAY))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ktoepke-tp)(PORT=1521))
    )
   (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = PLAY)
    )
  )
